    Help! Sick Hen!

    Is she having discharge from her mouth? How long has she been this way? Not eating, is she drinking? When was the last time she laid? Almost sound like she'd got a blockage & if her crop is "empty" she's lethargic cause she's not eating. Does she attempt to eat? What are you feeding her...

    Prior rear injury from fly larvae now has what looks like a prolapse but it's not the vent

    When was the last time she laid an egg? Wound looks like it's healing, the yellow stuff could possibly be "pus" which I've thought to be white, canker gets yellow .... The best I can recommend is continue with the Epson Salt Soaks, try spraying with Vetrycin Spray & keeping her behind clean...

    Comment by 'ChickNanny13' in article 'Why You Should Stop Feeding Layer Feed NOW'

    Never had any issues with my flock laying & no egg shell issues. FR is higher in protein, layer had "only" 16% although have noticed layer is now coming in higher protein (18%). Eggs are protein, makes sense the hens need more protein to "replenish" their nutrition. Read an article about the...

    Issues, Needing opinions

    UPDATE & needing opinions ... WTG is fine, hasn't "challenged" me since and leaving the WTB mix alone. WTB mix getting half a tablet of calcium daily, last month there were less "wet" spots under the roost. Earlier this month she laid a "good" egg although shape was off. Nothing's off with...

    Please help, ideas for limping chicken

    Have you checked under her foot? Since she's being pecked on, best to keep her separated in a small cage. Let her rest up in the event it's a sprain or muscle injury. Very gently, are you able to move her leg under her? Wondering if she jumped from a roost, hurt the hip joint. Since no...

    Eggshell, Granite grit, and oyster shell confusion....

    This is an old thread, good to get info from but best to start your own with question. Not sure about ducks but know too much calcium is not recommended for chicks & Roos.

    Issues, Needing opinions

    Their CH is 8x12x7 ... The dynamics have changed too; they're not eating all their morning feed (fermented) so I've been tossing crumbles late afternoon & they love that ... Guess something different? I use a large plastic dog bowl for their feeding; EE is always the first at the bow when I...

    Issues, Needing opinions

    The 3 hens (WTG, WTB/Marans and EE) are about a year & 7mons, have been together since they were chicks. The WTG is the "alfa" , the EE is the biggest but the lowest in pecking order and the WTB mix was her shadow, up until a few months ago. I do monthly "checks" of feet, clip nails, dust with...

    Broody hen

    Broody Jail = Wire cage with wire bottom, elevated off the ground with food & water, no bedding. You can keep it in the coop so she remains part of the flock, keep her in it for at least 3 days, longer IF she is stubborn.
